brake pads

well, i got the brake wear message on 2006 ml350, checked it out with dealer and they are saying rear brake pads needs to be replaced for 300-350? isnt this little to much, what are you guys paying for this kind of work. just to clarify, just the read pads and no rotors.

i spoke to other service place that handles all the german cars such as mb, bmw and audi and specializes in mb cars, and he quote 195, and they use oem parts. i might just go at this place to get it done?

what do you guys think, any feedback, help will be highly appreciated.

any competent shop can change the rear brakes pads easily..... its just like any other car with rear disc brakes. btw, the oem mb pads are actually branded Testar Brake Pads.
